The Carnegie Arts Center is once again highlighting
architecture, interior and landscape design in a fundraising event that brings many
different art forms together. The 2019 Art of Design: Home & Garden Tour
includes self-guided tours of four uniquely designed homes – inside and out.

From a classic historic home to a contemporary showplace, from
a modernist “green” design to a country ranch, all four homes will be open for
public tours 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. May 11.

The $30 ticket price ($25 for Carnegie members) supports the
city's nonprofit Carnegie Arts Center. It marks the second year that the
Carnegie has worked with local homeowners and design professionals to feature The
Art of Design. On the four-home tour attendees
will also find artists painting en plein air, poets creating new work on the
spot, musicians filling the spring air and more. Each home will have a creative
twist to enliven the space and highlight the variety of artistic endeavors the
Carnegie routinely presents.

A
special evening preview Twilight Tour is scheduled for 6 p.m. to 10 p.m.
May 10 at one of the most unique homes on the tour. Event attendees will have
the first look at this elegant home and will enjoy live music, delicious
farm-to-garden delicacies, regional wine and beer, and the opportunity to win
gifts in an art, design and fine living raffle. Tickets to the Twilight Tour
are $60 for Carnegie members, $75 for non-members and include admission to all
four homes during the Saturday tour as well.

Tickets
for the Friday Twilight Tour and the Saturday Home & Garden Tour are
available to purchase on-line at www.CarnegieArtsTurlock.Eventbrite.com,
by phone (209) 632-5761, x104, or in person at the Carnegie Arts Center, 250 N.
Broadway, Turlock. Ticket purchasers will receive addresses for the homes on
the tour.
